Class UNCPathConverter

java.lang.Object
org.eclipse.cdt.utils.UNCPathConverter

public abstract class UNCPathConverter extends Object
Base class for the UNC path conversion extension point. UNC paths are used to represent remote include locations, and this class is used to translate between UNC, IPath and URI representations. By default, paths are translated into the equivalent local file version to preserve existing behavior, but by providing an appropriate extension, these paths can be mapped into locations on a remote system. May be subclassed by clients.
